CHAPTER 25

"Mina, stop being silly. In an effort to go around her and continue, Mr. Ramirez interrupted, "We were talking about a work-related subject.

In the lavatory? Mina pushed, shifting her position subtly to obstruct his progress.

He said with a frustrated undertone, "Yes, she was brought here, and that's where I discovered her.

Mina continued to be skeptical when she addressed him. Do you believe I'm innocent? It's no secret that the two of you don't talk to one other very often. Then, what is it? Are you two still dating?

We both automatically yelled "No!" together as soon as the word "dating" appeared in the conversation. We exchanged a brief glance of understanding and silence before swiftly turning away.
